To Create a Markup
1. Click File > New.
2. In the New dialog box, click Markup and OK.
3. From the Markup dialog box, select or retrieve an object.
4. Type a name for the object you are creating. The default name is your user ID.
5. Click any of the following commands from the MARKUP menu to mark and annotate the object:
◦ Setup—Changes the color of the markup, creates a plot of it, toggles its display, or changes to another sheet of the markup and drawing. The MRKP SETUP menu displays the following commands:
Color—Changes the color of the markup. The default markup color is red.
Show—Lists the markups in the current working area along with their color. A check mark appears next to the markup’s name and color if it is currently displayed. Choosing the markup name again removes the check mark and turns off its display.
Switch Sht—lets you view and mark other sheets of the drawing.
Text Height—Sets the text height before creating notes.
Line Width—Sets the width of sketched entities before creating them.
◦ Note—Places a note without a leader.
◦ Arrow—Sketches an arrow. Use the left mouse button to select the point to which the arrow points; then select the point for the other end of the arrow. Press the middle button to abort arrow creation.
◦ Curve—Selects the points of a curve to which a spline is to be fitted. Use the left mouse button to select the point, the middle button to stop the curve, and the right button to abort curve creation.
◦ Sketch—Sketches a curve without selecting points for it. Hold the left mouse button down to create a free curve. Release the left button to end it.
◦ Line—Creates a line using the left mouse button.
◦ Move—Moves a note, curve, or line.
◦ Modify—Changes the note text or line width of a markup item.
◦ Delete—Deletes a markup item (note, arrow, curve, sketch, or line).
